Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie speaks on Donald Trump and racism

“You’re a white man, you don’t get to define what racism is.” Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie shuts down white manDuring BBC’s Late Night Show hosted by Emily Maitlis, the question that dominated the segment was “Is Donald Trump racist?”

Nigerian award winning novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie had a feisty clash with her co-guest, Editor in-chief of The American Spectator, R Emmett Tyrrell.

While Tyrrel was giving reasons why Donald Trump cannot be regarded as a racist, despite the statements he made during his campaign train and the fact that white supremacist group Ku Klux Klan (KKK) publicly endorsed him, Chimamanda cut him off with ‘You are a white man and you don’t get to define what racism is.”
